The Cheeky Girls- Cheeky Christmas
This was obviously a stunt to try and make the romanian twins popular. It failed. Miserably. The girls were discovered on Popstars, the show that made Girls Aloud famous and gave us Cheryl Cole. It’s funny how we haven’t heard anything else from them in years.
Coldplay- Christmas Lights
This song is really good, but it’s too depressing for Christmas. The componants of a Christmas song just isn’t there and it certainly isn’t cheesy like one either. You could question whether it should even be a Christmas song. So if you want a sad Christmas, listen to it.
Cliff Richard- Mistletoe and Wine
It’s more the video that makes this the worse Christmas song ever. Cliff Richard prancing about like he’s the real Santa, there is only so much we can take. This may have been a good hit back when it was released in 1988 but times have changed and unfortunately there is no room for Cliff Richard. Sorry Cliff.
Mariah Carey- All I Want For Christmas Is You
I am perfectly aware that this song is loved by many and is one of the biggest songs of Christmas, but (according to the office) it is too over played to the point where all I want for Christmas, is for it to be over. Which is a shame because everyone loves Christmas.
The Darkness- Christmas Time
This was a good song until few years down the line and it’s always playing. Wherever there is Christmas, there’s The Darkness. Please let the bells end.
Band Aid- Do They Know It’s Christmas?
It’s understandable why this song has been released and has raised lots of money for charity for people who don’t understand the meaning of Christmas, but making a remake of the song has made it all too annoying. Making a new charity Christmas would’ve surely been the way forward.
Billy Joel- Jingle Bell Rock
It’s not this cover that is annoying, it’s the covers and the rendition on Mean Girls that really gets me. This song for some reason has been “fluffed” up and made to be one of the raunchiest Christmas songs (thank you Lindsey Lohan) ever. Since when did Christmas mean less clothes when singing them?
Madonna (and other artists who have covered it)- Santa Baby
Carrying on with this “Christmas became raunchy”, this song is a primary example that the holidays have gone a bit off target. Christmas is for everyone but mainly for children, so when they hear this song what are the supposed to think?
I know Christmas is the time of year when cheesy songs can be excepted but these songs just go a little over the mark. Don’t you think?
